America wins again.

After a few days of a captain being held captive, our SEALS own 3 Somalian pirates and saves the day. On page 2, it says we never negotiated a ransom and only discussed their terms of surrender. Guess they should have surrendered!

I was reading about a Somali "response" to the rescue. It seems that a few of them decided to shoot mortar rounds at a congressman's plane. Yeah...shoot mortar rounds... at a plane.

...brilliant...

I honestly hope **** gets totally out of hand there. I really hope they pull me out of Iraq for my last couple of months and send me there without our hands tied. Just lay waste to that whole fucking shithole. Forget about a humanitarian mission, a rebuilding process, and building democracy. What they need are a heaping helping of tanks, bombs, and death.

If they capture a ship- we go in and kill them.
If they take a hostage- we go in and kill them.

Negotiating simply means more and more hostage taking and ship boarding by them looking for money.

You are not free whose liberty is won by the rigour of other, more righteous souls. Your are merely protected. Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it
